Brilliant stay.

Staff were lovely, as was the room. We couldnt fault it. It is a real gem, right in the middle of town. Worth paying for breakfast too. Lovely food and a great price.

Outstanding B&B, huge room.

This B&B is absolutely great. The room we had (room 4) was huge compared to other hotels we had stayed at as part of our previous 2 weeks holiday. Great little pub with a good selection of ales and food options. Breakfast was great quality as well.

Pleasant overnight stay.

Very pleasant overnight stay in Room 9, a front corner room with 2 windows overlooking the road. Had a drink in the Beer Garden before eating a well cooked meal in the restaurant. Friendly staff. Would stay again & recommend.

Room looked newly decorated, was bright clean and comfortable, traffic on the road can be noisy but we knew this when booking. Good value breakfast, restaurant staff very helpful. Convenient for town centre shops/eating options, close to lots of green space for walking along by the canal, walking distance of steam railway.

The staff is very friendly, but it is a pub with B&B: limitations. It is a location next to the channel crossing, but for seiht seeing I would choose a different location.

A comfortable night

The room was comfortable but functional in line with our expectations. We did find difficulty in sleeping because the pub is on a busy road but more bizarrely there are people chatting in the beer garden until the early hours of the morning. Hopefully that wouldn’t always be the case. Breakfast was lovely!

Great staff. Old building so could hear people walking around as floors creaked and doors banged at unsociable hours. Probably due to people arriving and departing for Eurostar.
